The region has come a long way since the demise of heavy industry and as it continues to develop its scientific research and bioscience base, new facilities are being created to accommodate this trend.
The North East Business and Innovation Centre (BIC) is providing a springboard for research and development activities in the region by offering high-quality bespoke laboratories for science orientated companies.
Tailored to meet the needs of these sectors, facilities are equally suitable for smaller as well as larger, more developed science related businesses as they can include office accommodation if required.
All of our labs include as standard:
-
Fresh/ extract ventilation
-
Recessed modular light fittings
-
Specialist floor covering, skirting and wall finish
-
24/7 access and security
-
Multiple power and data outlets
-
Trespa Athlon work/draw units
-
Industrial standard sinks
-
Access to broadband, ISP services and digital telecoms
Occupants can also benefit from priority use of a wide range of facilities, including an extensive ICT platform and the support of a team of business professionals.
Rents are charged at a competitive rate and tenancy agreements are flexible.
